I heavily disagree with you. People who get annoyed by certain ui changes always will, I still hate YouTube's new layout multiple years later.

There are always people getting annoyed by changes, doesn't matter what the changes are. Sometimes I get the impression that humans just need something to be annoyed about.

How about not fucking around with UI just so some manager can meet the yearly bonus?

Keeping something that's difficult to maintain and cannot integrate well with new features isn't how software works.

It is absolutely not about difficulty to maintain or feature issues, it 100% comes down to different ways to funnel you where they want you.

If your UI/UX elements have that deep ties with your deeper stack your codebase has big issues.

Revanced helps with the atrocious youtube experience

Honestly it's desktop that drives me insane though. I remember I used to have it hard linked to an old hack that used the old layout still, but they took that away a while ago now.

Honestly great example.

I wouldn't really use that comparison. The discord update resembles the old one. But old reddit and new reddit are damn near unrecognizable to one another.
